Very good video. I am not long after watching Paul at Haxby Shed do a review on the self same table from Vevor. It seems they don't always manage for the money because his had appreciable rock when sat on the mill table. He cured this by setting the table dead square, mounting it inverted and taking a pass over the base. That said, I still think these tools represent astonishing value.

Forget using protractors, get a magnetic base digital inclinometer, they read to 0.1 degree, make sure to zero it on the table of your machine first in case it is slightly off level.

That was well worth the money and I bet it sells well too. Very handy accessory. Just for something to do, I would try to get the backlash out of it just a little even though it doesn't matter that much.

I always enjoy your videos John…have a great evening

I have one of these, different vendor but made in the same sweatshop. Dragging the indicator across the top when it's set for zero angle doesn't mean shit because that's obviously the setup used when they ground the top flat. You'll never use it at zero degrees (flat) anyway! Set the table angle for something different, say 30 degrees, and THEN indicate the top. What you will find, if it's like mine, is about .010-015" out of flat from one side to the other. If you tilt it the other way, the high end goes to the other side. The bearing surfaces between the top and base are not made with much precision. I keep several pieces of shim stock handy to place between the base and top to make the table somewhat usable, aka within a few thou.

The crank feature of the table is poorly thought out and almost completely unusable! It's some kind of strange joke! As seen in the video, if you tilt the table towards you it's quickly becomes impossible to turn the crank at all. It's even worse if you clamp anything to the table like John's milling vise. Even when you tilt away from you, the crank mechanism prevents the table from fully reaching it's angle limits. I removed all that crank junk from mine and just snug the bolts when tilting the table. With the Indian sweatshop version of this table, they deleted the crank and cast rack and just have another bearing surface. I don't know if that one is more accurate or not.

Another thing they forgot was to finish the top of the clamp-down area! It's not close to being flat and has a rough, cast surface that will mar your hardware. I was able to fix this by reaching in with a fly cutter and milling it flat like it should have been.

The only thing going for it is price, but be prepared to do a lot of shimming and indicating when you need to use it.

Just another point to note.Vevor are currently the subject of UK Government action in terms of product safety of electrical appliances. This relates to a wide range of goods from welders to compressors to kitchen equipment.

[Manchester_engineering]

Aye, why aye man. Great video. I'll be looking at one soon. Still need to send you one of my cast iron welding squares one of these days.

[HaxbyShed]

I reviewed it on my channel too John and I agree it is very good for the money. I did have a bit of rock on the base so I skimmed it. Cheers Paul

John, I am contemplating to get the same angle-plate, but my 6x26 mill doesn't have a raiser-block (yet) - how much did you lift the head with that spacer? Thanks a lot for all the good clips!

The chinese govt subsidizes their companies. This is how they can afford this. That and labor is 9cents an hour and no bathroom breaks.
